Abstract:
This memorandum summarizes discussions and recommendations generated during a one-day training workshop by the Center for Watershed Protection (CWP) and Horsley Witten Group (HW) on better site design and stormwater management supported by the Guam Coastal Management Program (GCMP), Guam Environmental Protection Division (GEPA), and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coral Program. Workshop participants primarily included representatives from the development community, engineering consultants, military, and agency staff. After the workshop, CWP and HW met separately with GEPA on the status of post-construction stormwater regulatory updates initiated after a 2008 training conducted by CWP; recommendations from that meeting are included here. CWP and HW also spent two days in the field with agency staff from GCMP and GEPA, non-profit representatives, and students from the University of Guam (UOG) evaluating existing conditions and restoration priorities in the Piti-Asan watershed. Findings and a watershed management framework are presented in this memorandum.
